Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 15 ounces (425 grams) pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Spices and Seasonings:
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Crisp Topping:
- 1 cup (125 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/2 cup (50 grams) chopped pecans or walnuts
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F (175C), preparing a baking dish for the pumpkin dessert.
- Combine pumpkin puree with granulated and brown sugars in a large mixing bowl, creating a smooth base.
- Incorporate eggs individually, thoroughly blending after each addition to ensure a uniform mixture.
- Gently fold in heavy cream and vanilla extract, stirring until the consistency becomes silky and well-integrated.
- Sprinkle ground cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt into the mixture, whisking to distribute spices evenly.
- Transfer the spiced pumpkin blend into the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.
- Generously distribute the crisp topping across the surface, ensuring complete and uniform coverage.
- Slide the dish into the preheated oven, baking for 45-50 minutes until the topping transforms to a rich golden brown and the filling sets firmly.
- Allow the dessert to rest and cool slightly, then serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful finish.
Notes
- Choose canned pumpkin puree for consistent texture and save time from roasting fresh pumpkin.
- Use room temperature eggs to ensure smoother, more even mixing without lumps in the batter.
- Adjust spice levels by increasing or decreasing ground cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg to suit personal taste preferences.
- Replace heavy cream with coconut milk for a dairy-free version that maintains rich, creamy consistency.
